Chère Carol, What memories L'Alliance Française has for me! I spent the summer of 1968 in it, shelving French books, to pay for the French lessons that my Grand'mère's friends gave me all summer. They wanted to help moi, the 'uncultured and uncivilized girl from the Indian Territory' who had an 'incomplete college education'.I enjoyed the Boston area, went on to teach French for 20 years, taking dozens & dozens of students to fall in love with the country of France, just I had done!

I see that you will be exhibiting at L'alliance Francaise here in Boston in November. How wonderful! What are the dates? I went on their website but they do not yet have a schedule for November. I would love to see the exhibit and perhaps get to meet you as well as live very close to Boston

Paris, Ile de France, France

I moved to Paris 2 years ago. I should have done it sooner but that's how the macaron crumbles. Living on the Ile Saint Louis next to the Seine after the 19eme is 'la cerise sur la gâteau'. It doesn't get any better. I've painted watercolors for Bocuse, Champagne Mumm, Guerlain, Frederick Cassel, The Russian Tearoom and the Maharana of Udaipur.
